Mike Anderson and the University of Missouri are close to completing a two-year extension that would keep the coach from further entertaining overtures from Arkansas.
The deal would add two years to the five remaining on Anderson's current contract.
A source said the two sides have been working out the terms of an extension for weeks and that a proposal is awaiting approval from the UM Board of Curators, who would discuss it during their scheduled meeting in Rolla, which began Monday morning and will conclude Tuesday.
Missouri has compiled a record of 111-57 since Anderson, who spent 17 years in Fayetteville, Ark., as an assistant coach took over the program in 2006 and has reached the past three NCAA Tournaments.
